[Local cerebral consumption of glucose in the mouse. Adaptation of the 14C deoxyglucose method to free-moving small mammals].
Local cerebral glucose utilisation (LCGU) was measured with the [14C] deoxyglucose ([14C] DG) method in the awake, free moving Mouse. Values vary from 112 mumoles. 100 g-1. min.-1 in the superior colliculus, the most active structure, to 22 mumoles. 100 g-1. min.-1 in the internal capsule. Glucose consumption is high in fasciculus retroflexus, a result peculiar to the Mouse when compared to the other Mammals were studied so far with this method. The modifications in plasma sampling proposed in this paper should facilitate the use of the [14C] DG method in free moving animals as small as the Mouse, and allow for study of the effects of behavior on local cerebral energy consumption.
